CHICAGO, ILL, November l1.-At
2:30 o'clock this afternoon two An
arcbisLs, giving their names as Charles
Loberstein and Gustav Hains, were ar
rested on the front platform of street car,
with companion. They were talking
in very loud and in threatening man
ner of what they were going to do tonight,
''to get even for the death of their friends,
and the friends of the laboring men,"
A policeman was called and an exciting
struggle followed, in which many citizens
Joined. The two men were at length over
powered and taken TO the stations.
About two o'clock two bombs, reported
to be heavily charged, were found in an
omnibus which runs between the Union
depot and Lincoln Park. The bombs were
of gas pipes, each ten inches long They
were taken to the Desplsines street station.
The bodies of Spies, Fischer and Parsons
were taken away from the Jail about l:45
o'clock this afternoon. For Spies hearse
had been provided. The cOrrscS were Ia
ken to an undertaker's shop, where they
will be dressed and allowed to rest till
they are taken to the homes of their Tela-
tives this evening
A quiet almost like Sunday prevailed on
the down town streets all day, hut there
was an omniprcsent
AIR OF SUPPRESSED EXCITEMENT.
The very wagons on the streets seemed
to move less nOiseleSsly and the sharp
voices of the neWsboys rung on the air,
calling extra papers which contained the
announcement when the final act in the
life and death drama was to be enacted.
The news of Mrs. Parsons arrest caused
momentary ripple OF excitement, and at
the announcement of this item OF news,
the strained nerves Of the men seemed 10
throb under the suppressed excitement
That woman is more to be feared than a
thousand rioters" said one officer, and
that was the general sentiment.
The police bad strict orders not to allow
crowds to congregate, and the people walked
along the streets leading to the Jail were
kept moving. 1t was good natured, we'll
dressed crowd, and
NOT WORD WAS HEARD
that could be interpreted as an attempt to
create excitement. At 10 o'clock there
were fully 10000 persons surrounding the
police, but all were moving except where
they congregated two blocks away from
the Jail The police soon started them,
and throughout kept the crowd well III
band.
Mrs. Parsons said she was told by a
deputy last night TO call at the Jail at $50
o'clock this morning, so that the children
might see their father. At the appointed
time she made the request to he allowed to
enter and was sent from one street to an
other until 1890 o'clock. Then she made
an effort
TO PASS UNDER THE ROPE,
and WAS prevented. At the next corner
she was put in patrol wagon and taken
TO the station. She says she was very
courLeously treated, being placed in the
same cell with Mrs. Holmes and
the children. She was set at lib
erty about two o'clock. Accompanied
by the reporter she walked south on
Clark street to Indiana without apparently
being recognized by anyone. Every mo-
ment a newsboy would shove a paper in
her face, crying: Full account Of the ex-
ecutiou." She frequently broke down and
sobbed, and as they passed along, took her
boy more firmly by the hands and walked
more rapidly, keeping her head bent down.
